lol @ "pray we do not investigate further" response.
Maybe it would help if you actually explained where you got the ~664m from?

Didn't CCP outlaw selling GTCs outside the secure method? Presumably if people are selling these on Jita local (for example) then there is a risk of their millions disappearing?

They didn't ban him, only shows how much they love our 15 USD/Euro a month. Or maybe they have banned him now since he doesn't post a reply here trying to lie his way out of this mess.
Well at least they do something.
If you take the risk
GM thakes yur isk
Being -400 million odd in the hole is as good as being banned to be honest. Pretty much no way out of that short of re-rolling of having a very understanding corp to bail you out.

You could bring CCP to court because they restricted you to play the game for the money you pay (unless the EULA allows something like this, then the EULA has at least one very bad paragraph obviously).
Ahahahahaha... armchair lawyers FTL.
Maybe he could bring a class action lawsuit?!?

After I paid $20 to have the character sent to me?
See, another "illegality". The original owner of the account should have paid the 20$, not you.

30$, a GTC retail site, and a couple of minutes in the forum, and no more problems.
True, didn't think of that

Making people negative does seem kinda crappy though imo, at least if you reset them to 0 and they still had ammo or whatever they could work their way back up (slowly). If you're minus-whatever what choices do you have - cancel subscription or sell GTCs, that's basically it.

What good would that do? I buy a billion isk, buy a carrier and have 10,000 left over. By setting my wallet to 0 all I lose is 10k. No, the GM's remove the isk you received from the illegal transaction, and since you have probably already spent it, you land deep in red.
Good point. I don't think it's necessarily safe to assume however that every situation is as clinical as this, and in situations where someone no longer has (either destroyed or otherwise lost) whatever it was they originally bought the net result is the same - they're screwed.
I'm just playing Devils Advocate really - forcing someone to buy GTCs to get out of the hole seems almost like a racket, it would be more humane just to ban the recipient outright.
